IN THE LAST DAYS

Powerful message from Merla Watson - Jim Bramlett

Dear friends:

Merv and Merla Watson are Canadian musicians and song writers who specialize in Jewish music and who spend a lot of time ministering in Israel, where they are well known. They have been around a long time. I remember them on TV back in the 1970s. They are awesome. You may remember them too. Merla wrote the songs "Awake, O Israel" and "Jehovah Jireh."

Merla is a friend of Christine Darq, who sent me the below letter from her, with permission to share its timely and powerful message.

From Merla Watson:

I have a very deep heaviness and dread today. Suddenly I woke up with it around 3 a.m. and could not get back to sleep. There is something in the realm of the spirit that is about to happen, and my whole being is ON GUARD! I'm holding my breath.

We are being FLOODED with e-mails (as I am sure you are too!) about the call to pray, pray, pray - for the settlers in Israel, for the moral corruption in the nations, for the sickness of our own nation of Canada, for the planned universal Islamic take over, for the persecution of believers, for sinister secretive deadly plots - etc. and etc. I feel at gut level that there is an emergency summons upon us all to get our hearts purified before the Lord, and to "have done with lesser things!". This is not a time for dishonesty, hidden immorality, lack of forgiveness, playing church, or unsolved family and friend feuds. LET IT GO!! People - get it together - His coming is at the door! And some of us are going to be caught "red-handed"! I heard a song years ago that said: 'It won't always be like this, my friend - it won't always be like this!" What a travesty that most churches hardly ever mention the inevitable final scenario. Where are the songs of His coming in glory??

We are so very localized. It's almost as if we should stop all church programmes, and get down on our knees for city-wide, nation-wide, and world-wide repentance. CANCEL THEM!!

Ministries which blatantly bathe in financial extravagance will be brought to shame and an abrupt halt. Whole governments are about to topple. Natural disasters are even at our doorstep. Men's hearts will indeed fail from fear. Human plans are being thwarted. Prodigals will be shaken to their roots. Can you feel the pounding heart of the Father in all this?

And yet... that burden I am experiencing today is curiously intertwined with a culminating joy, believe it or not!

I am reminded of that very simple song: "There never was a day like this day to me, There never was day like this day I see, There never was a light that shines so bright as THIS day, this GLORIOUS day! Painful, pulsating, birthing, NECESSARY........may we filled with JOY - no, - ECSTASY - when Zion happens!!

Hang in there! (I'm talking to mySELF too!) There's a bumpy ride ahead...

Merla

Not In A Million Billion Years :: By Dave Hubley Published on: December 24, 2022 by RR10 Category:General Articles (There is a special message at the end of this article for those who might happen to read this and do not have Jesus in their life and are looking for peace and a way to better understand the present-day insanity and confusion.) Several years ago, I had a conversation with a guy in a waiting room while getting an oil change (in the car, not me). I don’t recall exactly how the conversation originated or how it progressed, but I have never forgotten it. As I recall, it had something to do with evolution and an article that was contained in a “waiting room magazine” that was available there. He made the observation that God was “something that man had made up.” I can’t recall the exact reason he used to justify his opinion, but it had something to do with the usual reasons people give: Weak-willed people needing a crutch, and blah, blah, blah. I engaged him in a “witness,

9-16-23 Santa Staleness

Santa Staleness :: By Edwin Tan Published on: December 24, 2022 by RR10 Category:General Articles My one and only trip to Israel had more than a profound effect on my present-day psyche. It might have been three decades ago, but there is more than a lingering aftertaste. It happened smack in the last fortnight of the year. Surprisingly absent were the familiar sights and sounds of the Christmas most people are accustomed to. Hardly any Christmas decorations in downtown Tel Aviv, if not any of the shopping thoroughfares across the Holy Land. Hanukah was a breath of fresh air – not anything resembling a Christmas carol most people grew up with did surface. The Christmas Eve service in a small Protestant church not far away from Jerusalem’s Old City was awesome; songs that truly celebrated the virgin birth of our Lord, which though seemingly unheard of, were a welcome inspiration to many a soul. There was even one sung in Arabic! So it began, my overt disdain for the secular Christmas t

9-15-23 Miracles 2

Miracles 2 :: By Jim Towers Published on: December 21, 2022 by RR10 Category:General Articles This story is a continuation of the exciting things God continues doing in my life. I was supposed to have died a while back, and sometimes I feel as though I may do so soon. But since I’m ready to meet my maker, I have no fear of death. In fact, my evangelistic zeal has only increased, especially as I see the fast approaching of the “Tribulation period” mentioned in the book of Revelation. Insofar as my acting career is concerned, I just finished filming a soliloquy featuring Melchior, one of the three Magi who followed the star to Christ lying in the manger, and am preparing to portray a Jewish Priest on stage. Like I said, God is working overtime in my life, and I will be appearing on stage singing Broadway show tunes sometime in March, so I have a lot of rehearsing to do. In the meantime, I will be signing Christmas carols acapella at a park here in Naples. Since it is a spontaneous th
